Looks like you have the stabilizer on backwards according to woods instructions. On mine the chrome shaft is hooked to the woods relocation bracket, and the steering stabilizer body is hooked to the u bolt clamps on the tie rod.

 

That's how this is installed. It's just compressed so it may be deceiving which way it's installed.

 

I secured the tie rod end of my stabilizer at roughly the same spot as stock. With the wheels pointed forward, I left enough room so the tube end could travel an equal distance in either direction. Was this a bad idea?

 

Just found this thread. What you guys have come up with makes sense, so it inspired me to update the instructions. In case anybody needs the new version, here's the LINK

 

I run wood's relocation and I love it.

Strong! and a beautiful piece.

 

Agreed. Woods products are top-notched. However, there does seem to be an issue with after market dampeners (especially those that are thicker and longer than the OEM dampener). All of the pics on this thread are of the truck being turned left/right on level ground. I believe that the rubbing is exacerbated when turned at full flex.

I am still trying to figure out which dampener to go with, as my OEM is beginning to leak now. Whatever I choose to replace it with, however, must be as thin as the OEM dampener.

 

JKS just released a relocation bracket. It's part number OGS162. By the way it looks, there shouldn't be any rubbing.

 

Flex doesn't have anything to do with the SS rubbing on the track bar bolt. With about 700 of these out there, this seems to be a very small problem.


I offer a KYB SS that works great with the kit: http://www.jeepswag.com/jeep_jk_stee...kit/index.html

 

I have Woods steering stabilizer relocation bracket, 3" lift, Teraflex steering stab & forged trackbar. I have no clearance issues at all.

 

I just ordered a Woods SS. My TF unit is leaking, and does not appear to be rubbing on anything. This is my 3rd TF unit to be replaced w/o any direct impact to it...

edit: forgot to clarify that I have the Woods relo kit w/ TF SS.
